Understanding Persian VOB files
Persian has three major national varieties: Iranian Persian (Farsi), Dari in Afghanistan, and Tajik in Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, which differ in vowel pronunciation, vocabulary, and loanwords. Colloquial spoken Persian, especially the Tehrani register, also diverges noticeably from formal written Persian in verb endings and contractions, which matters when converting speech to standard written text.

Frequently asked questions
How to improve the accuracy of your Persian transcripts?
Start by improving the quality of the Persian VOB file that you upload to Sonix. Please use high quality recording equipment, recording in a quiet environment, and ensure that your speakers are speaking clearly to ensure that your transcript is as accurate as possible.
Any advice for the Persian VOB file that I upload?
Yes, please do not over-compress or over-filter the audio track of your Persian VOB file. By uploading a high quality version of your audio, we can give you the best level of accuracy.
Aside from VOB, do you support other types of audio/video files?
Yes, we do! You can convert the following file types in Persian with Sonix:
Why is my DVD split into several VOB files?
The DVD-Video specification limits each VOB segment to 1 GB, so longer titles are stored as sequential files (VTS_01_1.VOB, VTS_01_2.VOB, and so on) inside the VIDEO_TS folder. You can transcribe each segment separately or join them into a single file first for one continuous transcript.
My VOB has multiple audio tracks — which one gets transcribed?
VOB files can multiplex several audio streams, such as different languages or a commentary track. Transcription uses one audio stream at a time, so if you need a track other than the default, extract or remux that stream before uploading.
Can Sonix transcribe Dari or Afghan Persian audio?
Yes. Dari is a national variety of Persian, and Persian-language audio from Afghanistan can be uploaded, transcribed, edited, and exported like any other supported language.
Is Farsi the same as Persian for transcription purposes?
Farsi is the local name for Persian as spoken in Iran, so selecting Persian is the correct choice for Farsi audio. The same selection covers Iranian Persian recordings from media, interviews, and meetings.
Does Persian transcription handle right-to-left text?
Yes. Persian transcripts are produced in the right-to-left Perso-Arabic script, and you can edit them in the browser and export to formats such as Word, SRT, and VTT.
